Everyone (well almost everyone) while growing up knows how "His dad so cheap."  Dad's try to call this conserving money, shopping smart, getting the most out of your buck, whatever you what to call it, it's basically being cheap.  This page is meant in good fun and is not meant as "Dad Bashing" or any of the sort.  It is meant as pure humor, in a very stressed 90's world.

Therefore, send me any of your stories that you think other internet surfers would enjoy reading.  All entries will remain anonymous.
